The present work was carried out to evaluate the molluscicidal activity of active ingredient Taraxerol with the acetone extract of Euphorbia tirucalli against Lymnaea acuminata snail. The (fecundity, hatchability and survivability) of snail L. acuminata exposed to this extract was studied. The
The functions of Trp612, Leu734, and Tyr736 of Euphorbia tirucalli β-amyrin synthase were examined. The aliphatic variants (Ala, Val, Met) of Trp612 showed almost no activity, but the aromatic variants exhibited high activities: 12.5 % of the wild-type activity for the W612H variant, 43 % for W612F,
To study the chemical constituents of Euphorbia antiquorum L., the constituents were isolated with normal-phase and reverse-phase silica gel column chromatography and their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Seven terpenoids were obtained from EtOAc extract of E.
The present review is intended to provide information on botany, ethnomedicinal uses, phytochemistry and biological activities of various parts of Euphorbia neriifolia (E. neriifolia). E. neriifolia has several ethnomedicinal uses. The latex of E. neriifolia is used as laxative, purgative,
Herbal medicines have become strongly preferred treatment to reduce the negative impacts of diabetes mellitus (DM) and its severe complications due to lesser side effects and low cost. Recently, strong anti-hyperglycemic effect of Euphorbia thymifolia Linn. (E. thymifolia) on mice models has
A new ent-atisane diterpenoid, ent-3α-acetoxy-1β,16β,17-trihydroxyatisane (1), along with four known compounds, 3,3',4'-tri-O-methylellagic acid (2), (R)-(+)-lasiodiplodin (3), taraxerol (4) and syringic acid (5) were isolated
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the chemical constituents of the stems, leaves and roots of Euphorbia hirta, and to test for the cytotoxic and antimicrobial potentials of the major constituents of the plant.
METHODS
The compounds were isolated by silica gel chromatography and their structures were
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents from the aerial part of Euphorbia chrysocoma.
METHODS
All compounds were isolated and purified by many methods, including siliga gel and reversed phase RP-18 column chromatographies, preparative thin layer chromatography, Sephadex LH-20, and
Euphorbia hirta L. from the family of Euphorbiaceae is an annual herb, which grows as a roadside weed in most tropical countries. It is prominently used by the traditional healers in rural India for the treatment of snakebites. However, the mechanisms and the major bioactive compounds behind
